Re: Fungal infection re toenails - microbial soil stimulant

[Guest guest]

My friend developed this hoping to market it but is caught in red tape as to its

proper designation by Agriculture Canada - would cost him 25-40K to get it

accepted as category designation is very tight regarding terms of action - i.e.

is it a fertilizer, etc.

so he makes small amounts and sells to several golf courses etc. and what it

does is stimulate a healthy population of beneficial soil microorganisms that

facilitate uptake of nutrients to growing plants, enabling them to grow more

vigorously, resistant to disease, etc.

He has told me that the brew will clear up the fungus and I've emailed him to

have him describe mechanism of action against fungals and will post to group

when he replies in the next day or so. Here is a small excerpt from the label,

by kind permission of Rick Haynes.

" Natural Yard is a product that helps balance soil biology. The microbes living

in the soil are critical to soil quality. They affect soil structure and

therefore soil erosion and water availability. These microbes help protect

turf, shrubs trees and crops from pests and disease. They are central to

decomposition and nutrient cycling and therefore affect plant growth and amounts

of pollutants in the environment.

Natural Yard is designed to provide the proper balance of nutrition for the

incredible diversity of organisms that make the soil a living, healthy substrate

for the exchange of life giving nutrient interactions. Without these

interactions, the transference of nutrients leads to poor plant health causing

stress and ripe conditions for non-beneficial organisms to flourish. Plants and

micro-organisms have their own natural defenses against various invasions by

dangerous bacteria, viruses, fungi and insects. By providing basic nutrition to

micro-organisms, the soils web of life can maintain their own natural defenses

against natural and man-made stresses.

The ingredients in Natural Yard help feed the microbial populations necessary

for healthy soils. Your yard should use half the water to stay green.

Synthetic fertilizers can be reduced by two thirds to three-fourths the

recommended application rates with the use of Natural Yard to achieve the same

results, thereby reducing the nitrogen and phosphate load entering the

environment.

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. If distressed seek medical advice.

Natural Yard contains no hazardous ingredients. Depending on amount ingested, a

mild to moderate case of diarrhea may occur.

Ingredients: Water, plant extracts, saponin, sarsaponin, glucosides, xanthene,

amino acids. Sulfates of cobalt, copper, dihydrogen, iron, magnesium,

manganese, zinc and all-natural proprietary ingredients. "

Will post info when he responds. Hope this helps a bit.

this fungus on my right big toe following an accident.  Do you think ozone

treatment woul be a good way to go ?

says gets rid of toenail fungus. Also read an article that enzymes in ground

cornmeal will destroy toenail fungal infection by gobbling it up.  I'm going to

be trying both and let you know how I make out.
